Atomic Posted September 30, 2016 Report Posted September 30, 2016 20 minutes ago, Goalie said: Or the Jets trade for a top 4 lhd and Postma Morrissey which looked pretty good the other game is our 3rd pair. Yeah that's a possibility I suppose but I don't see it happening. I don't think we're getting a top 4 LHD from anyone.
JCon Posted September 30, 2016 Report Posted September 30, 2016 Here's the thing... If Morrissey makes the team, is he ready for top pairing minutes with Buff? That doesn't feel right. But then, who partners with Buff? Chiarot? They paired well two years ago. But who else? Enstrom? That leaves a hole next to Myers Back to Morrissey for a sec.... If not Buff, then who? Myers? Postma? That means Stuart sits, right? Will they do that?
Atomic Posted September 30, 2016 Report Posted September 30, 2016 Seems obvious to me that as it stands the lines will be: Enstrom - Byfuglien Morrissey - Myers Chiarot/Stuart - Postma Ducky 1

Is there no one else who can step up?
Ducky Posted September 30, 2016 Report Posted September 30, 2016 Our D depth is poor. Chevy needs to make some trades and shore it up. Enstrom, if not re-signed, is gone after next season and Stanley will not be ready. What does that leave us with for a D corps when we are supposed to be contenders? Morrissey Buff Chiarot (if re-signed) Myers (gone the next year if not re-signed) and Trouba's rights. Kostalek Stanley Nogier Poolman (if signed). I don't see anyone from this group playing for the Jets any ti me soon. Chevy needs to move out some forwards for some D men.

I generally believe you need 10 defencemen in the organization who are capable of playing in the NHL and I think we have that. Keeping in mind that you aren't going to have NHL regulars in those 9-10 spots (no one does). Enstrom - Byfuglien Morrissey - Myers Chiarot - Postma Stuart - Strait Melchiori - Kichton
Rich Posted September 30, 2016 Author Report Posted September 30, 2016 Strong defence through your top 6 is more then a Jets problem. It is a league wide problem and why top 4 defencemen fetch such a premium. This problem is only going to be exasperated with the Las Vegas expansion. Of course having a D-Man who was a top 10 draft pick decide he doesn't want to play with you after his ELC doesn't help.

Lol after two preseason games... the advanced stats crowd have been crying about him since the day he signed. I lend no credibility to their opinion. IC Khari and Noeller 2

The Unknown Poster Posted September 30, 2016 Report Posted September 30, 2016 Would be great if Chiarot rebounded. He looked so good when called up a couple years ago. If someone can over achieve we might be ok

kelownabomberfan Posted October 1, 2016 Report Posted October 1, 2016 So how did Laine look last night? I couldn't get TSN Go to work. It must monitor IP addresses and location.

That dude is crazy. Edited October 1, 2016 by FrostyWinnipeg

kelownabomberfan Posted October 1, 2016 Report Posted October 1, 2016 They cut Matt "Guitar" Murphy? They better think about the consequences of that!! FrostyWinnipeg 1
FrostyWinnipeg Posted October 3, 2016 Report Posted October 3, 2016 4-0 victory tonight over Cowtown. Those who stood out...DeLeo, Pavelec and how bout Stuart who pocketed one? Pav may be the oldest goalie but he's the quickest. I suppose its a butterfly thing. Morrissey gotta stay outta that box. Thorbs fightin for his job. Burmi/Lowry noticeable, Tanev not so much. Decent play by the d overall.
Goalie Posted October 3, 2016 Report Posted October 3, 2016 (edited) Lol. Pavelec made routine saves look more difficult because he has poor positioning. He's definitely not the quickest.... it just looks that way because he's out of position so much so he has to scramble to make a save. He made 4 good saves and 27 easy ones. Who exactly played for Calgary tonight? Congrats on shutting out the stockton heat of the ahl Burmi and Lowry only noticeable because of how slow they are. Thorburn? Gimme a break. He shouldn't be on the team and if he is... Maurice is full of crap. Edited October 3, 2016 by Goalie
bustamente Posted October 3, 2016 Report Posted October 3, 2016 Another good preseason game PoMo gonna have some hard choices to make soon.
